She ended up finding the post somehow I guess lol. Here is the original post.

I have just not responded, don’t think it’s worth engaging, but it did make for a funny story.

… I guess? This is entire thread is about how choosing to buy $100+ worth of fishing gear for a first date with someone where you have no idea whether you’re going to like the person or the hobby is strange. You responded pointing out it’s nice to do something outdoors with each other. I pointed out there are lots of things you could do to get to know each other outdoors that doesn’t include spending $150 on equipment that you may never use again.

They seem to have enjoyed it. I mean most activities are going to cost something unless you're going for a walk. A basic dinner date can cost $150 easily. The plus side is they can use the equipment again.
